THE RETALIATION BILLS.

The House Sub Committee Reports Substi-
tnte for the Pending Measures.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 14.-The subcommittee
of the House committee on foreign affairs in its
report on the substitute for the Senate fisheries
bill, says:
.'Both measures propose to confer unon the
President discretionary power of proclaiming
non-intercourse with the provinces of British
North America. In view of tho far reaching
consequences of these powers, the committee
are impressed with the importance of clearly
defining them, SO that such non-intercourse as it
may be necessary to establish shall be effective
and decisive. Your committee are of the opin-
ion that the Senate bill is not sufficiently ex-
plicit in this respect 1t requires the President
to be satisfied that our fishing vessels and fish
ermen have been denied the privileges accorded
the trading vessels Of the most favored nations.
whe reas we have NO treaty with Great Britain

wise, are those commercial! and trading privi
leges which are ordinarily accorded by one civil
i2ed nation to another. and such as are now and
have been for many years conceded to Canadian
and British vessels in American ports. Tho
committee are also Of the opinion that the SEN
ate bill is defective in other important res pects
it empowers the President to deny entry into
any port place in the United States of fresh
fish. or salt fish, or any other product of said
Dominion. or other goods coming from said Do.
minion to tho United States' The question
arises, therefore, if thu merchandise whose en-
trance by land into the United States is to be
prohibited. is merely that which is the product of
Canada, how could such provision be enforced!
The fact that a Canadian car contained merriam
disc would be no evidence that the mer-
chandise was of the prohibited kind, for
under treaty foreign merchandise is entered
in Canadian ports for land transit to the United
States Canadian products might be moved in
Canadian cars with foreign merchandise. Every
car would have to be examined and wholly un-
loaded, and even then it would not be difficult TO
evade the law"
These difficulties, the report says. it is be-
lieved are met by that clausejn the amended bill
herein reported, which relates to the privileges
secured by Article 2G Of the treaty Of 1871. In
conclusion the report says:

FRANCE AND GERMANY.

How German Paper Answers Questions
-France's Readiness for War.
BERLIN. Feb. 1.-The Post says, in reply to
an inquiry by Deputy Eynern in the Landtag,
to whether war is probable, that Bismarck
said: "You know quite as much as do We
live in state of peace, but look at the French
preparations; at the building of barracks; the
position of General Boulanger: the constant out
cry of the French Patriotic League during six
teen years, and then consider what we hare to
fear from France" The Post recommends Ger
mans who desire to know the position the
French frontier to study map prepared at
Wurtemburg by Major Troltsch and published
at Stuttgart, which shows that between Paris
and the eastern frontier troops of the line, com
bned with the present reserves, form an effect
i've force of 60a,000, which can be sripled in q
few days.
A leading manufacturer at Elberfeld declares
that business is at standstill there owing to

Knights of Labor N Chicago have received an
order from General Master Workman Powderly,

general boycotts be attempted without the sane
tion of the general executive board, at Phladel-

Knights constitution declaring, in effect, that
district assemblies may inaugurate boycotts
within their respective jurisdictions. but for
any extension they must apply to the general
board The letter from Mr.. Powderly Is said to
have intimatei that any future infractiops of
this law by the Chicago districts would not be
